jon: there is also the fact that five months of messages have turned up missing. melissa: when the irs said things were missing and turns out they were going missing under his rule. i think in normal times you might be able to give some credence to this in government. it s a pretty fair rule stupidity and ineptitude is more telling than sort of criminal intent but it is very, very convenient that these things are missing. i think congress needs to get to the bottom of that, too. have a report to make sure that the f.b.i. is actually telling the truth on this. jon: we should point out you aren t an anti-f.b.i. crusader. no. the family business, my dad was an f.b.i. agent, very proud of it. i m very proud of my dad s service. he has nothing to do with my coverage. there are a lot of good f.b.i. agents out there. i would say the majority of them are good. the leadership, there are
people around this president. watch this clip of me and on the other end talk to me about how the sean hannity s of the world communicate with the president. first this montage. the fbi south of control. there are clear, abusive biases at the doj and the fbi and robert mueller s team. pieces of information that may seem small but add up to a pattern of bias. unethical political crusader. more e-mails are coming out to show the bias here. hand-picked minions are hillary-loving, partisan hack. people who hate the president, have a bias against him, investigating him. inherent bias in the investigation. full of corruption, partisanship. we have a coup on our hands in america. can you understand how the president can get frustrated. you can understand why the president gets frustrated if that s what he s hearing every hour of every day.
this is a reversal of reality. obviously it s trump world that son the hot seat. four trump associates have been charged with crimes. two of the four have pled guilty. mueller is investigating a massive fire. everyone can see and smell the smoke. this, instead, is what the president is hearing. the only thing that remains is whether we have the fortitude to not just fire these people immediately but to take them out in cuffs. that is jenine pirro, one of trump s informal advisers, not just calling for firings but arrests. i don t say this lightly but these fots, friends of trumps, are talking like propagandispro. other fox hosts are calling the fbi corrupt and out of control. rush limbaugh is describing it as a coup and guests on these
political reasons i think really does a disservice to the men and women who are out there fighting the good fight and really trying to up hold the constitution every day. brian, there s been a huge rise in anti-mueller and anti-fbi rhetoric. it s shocking to watch. it s got to be coordinated because they re all saying the exact same thing. some of the same people who praised some of the members of the fbi and the fbi not that long ago. watch this. mueller is frankly a disgrace to the american justice system and has put the country now on the brink of becoming a banana republic. the mueller investigation is illegitimate and corrupt. and mueller has been using the fbi as a political weapon. and the fbi has become america s secret police. secret surveillance, wiretapping, intimidation,
this is strategy now. a coordinated effort to discredit the mule probe. this is an effort rachel maddow recently warned about. it sounds nuts but they are really working on it. increasingly since mike flynn pled guilty and we learned he was cooperating two weeks ago, we have seen a whole lot of red flags flying. we have seen the increasing anti-fbi, anti-mueller growing fever pitch in pro turn conservative media. we have seen in it comments from white house officials who have started to say things like, the fix is in against the president. that warning is proving prescient and that is the statement of fact. let me give you a legal view. there are two ways you can view this newly aggressive public strategy. one, it could reveal that people closeett to the president, the rush probe, are getting nervous.
